Australia, the Indo-Pacific Idea and a Multipolar Order
Abstract
Getting foreign policy right has never been more difficult than at this point in world diplomatic history. Wedged between its alliance relationship with the US – vastly complicated as it has been by the advent of President Donald Trump – and its hugely important economic relationship with China, this is especially so for Australia. Australia’s trade with China is a larger share of its total trade than is that for any other G20 economy.
